Access Fabric data from application with Privatelink

PanuO — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 11:49:42 GMT

I want to access Fabric resources (Onelake through abffs and https) safely from an external app that is running on user private computers (users are connected into Azure with VPN). I have created private link between Fabric and Azure, but I still cannot access the resources by using the privatelink address. Is the privatelink used only for egress traffic (in Fabric point of view), or can I used it to access the data within Fabric?

Yes, Microsoft expects you to use Fabric for all integration (OneLake plus shortcuts). But, you can use a notebook to write parquet or delta tables to an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account/container, and then that would be available to external applications thru a private link.

I have done this, but the problem is that app is not able to find the lakehouse resource through abfss path with privatelink address.

OK. I am using Fabric to ingest data, but I would like to read it in another app and use private link to access the data.
